The texts of the Bible are presented in chapter-and-verse, which permits scholars to engage in exegesis by citing a particular line of text as a reference. We decided to do this by super-scripting each sentence, and separating sentences by line breaks. To maintain the authors’ original paragraphing, we used three asterisks on a separate line to separate paragraphs. Here is a short sample. The following is a paragraph from Madison’s Federalist #46.

Very well thought out! Obviously, you are making a good effort for people to understand our Constitution and its foundations.

(Don't worry about NPR picking up on this ;^) )

Quick question, I'm looking for a book that combines both the Federalist and Anti-Federalist papers (all of them). Have any of you guys looked through this book:

amazon

I'm going to pick up Ketchum's book as well.

I don’t see how it could contain all the Anti-Federalist Papers because it took Storing seven volumes to make them all fit. I suspect it has the same papers that Ketcham used for his chronology.

Good to see you on board.

Even better to see the "wheels up" as your new project takes flight!

Although I was looking forward to it, this initial posting has grown my interest.

I don’t have a problem with your posting a link to your book at Amazon. FReepers should support their own.

the means of opposition to it are powerful and at hand.

Many of the People still believe the federal, or general government is omnipotent, despite the multitude of the Founders' writings to the contrary.

Even the die-hard Federalists would be considered far right wing, today!
